This pride thing in God's kingdom needs to stop. Where are the humble servants? The field hands?
Stop being a 'proud member' in the kingdom. Start being a hands on family member in the kingdom of God: it's about doing God's work according to God's plan, God's blueprint for seeing His kingdom grow.
It's about loving each other with the love of Christ. Let God judge the heart and get out of the way. "Love one another the way I have loved you", is what Jesus tells us in John 15:12.
It’s about submission; submitting to the guidance of the Holy Spirit and not giving in to a willful spirit. “Pride comes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.” Proverbs 16:18
Pride is taking credit where none is due. What a Christian does in God’s kingdom is for God’s glory, God’s honor, God’s increase. “Whatever you do, work at it with your whole being, for the Lord and not for men, because you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as your reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Colossians 3:23-24
